This is a warning about an art thief
who is using my artwork without permission
and copy pasting them into avatar and banner pictures.
And is denying everything.
Here is the evidence.
Their name is Bijon And the picture used behind the avatar is this
You can see how he has cropped out the piece of my artwork and COVERED the WATERMARK with his avatar.That watermark has always been there, and it shows up on google as well. It has never been removed,and the watermark says Exunary.Deviantart.Com. While Deviantartartswatermark has changed its appearance, it has always said, Exunary.Deviantart.Com
It has never been so faint that you've been able to miss it.He has taken several pictures with watermarks and on purpose covered it up withhis avatars and then edited them.
Here are more avatars he has used my artwork in without permission:
He even made a banner with the whole thing blurred You can easily tell how he has copy pasted them and covered the watermark. The watermark isalways centered in the picture, and the bits he has clipped out, are never of the center. I don't even need to point that out. You can clearly tell it's my art.
He has used several artworks I've made and copied bits of it, or copied thewhole picture entirely. Here are some obvious examples.
Notice how he centers the avatar ontop of the watermarkDeliberately covering it up
Another example.
Here you can even see the watermark peeking up on the leftsideshoulder of the avatar. Comparing the two. Proving that he has not, drawn over my art, or been ''inspired'' by it. He has directly copied it.
Here he has used(this one has the new watermark, he copied it before I put it there)and
And he has used many, many, many more.
He claims the following
<da:thumb id="650996126"/>
Here he claims he doesn't sell the backgrounds. But he does, he uses his avatarsto cover up areas of the background, especially to cover up the watermarkAnd then he sells it for this much
Would you pay 30 to 50 dollars for that avatar? 80 to 120 dollars for that tiny avatar and little text in the banner?
How are the backgrounds NOT included.
He says his ''customers'' don't have to pay for the background unless it's customised.So going by his prices, the lowest someone can pay for a banner displayed above, is 80 dollars. And since thebackground is stolen and not customized, he is either taking 80 dollars for the little avatar and text, or 80 dollars for the whole thingincluding the stolen artwork created by me. The watermark on it was added after he copied and stole it.
All of the pictures he has submitted were submitted long after my pictures. Another example of how he can simply not have drawn that.
He claims that he has drawn every single background, but clearly has not. As some examplesabove show the watermark peeking through, the watermark being covered up delibirately. And anyone with two or at least one basic eye, can tell it has been directly copy pasted.
He claims he doesn't know about an Exunary or ever seen such a watermark, yet in this example
You see the deviantart watermark on his left shoulder as I said earlier
You simply cannot ignore that watermark. It literally says Exunary.Deviantart.com
On his youtube channel, he says he has created these pictures forseveral youtube channels.
Just with this evidence alone, you can tell he has not created any of the backgrounds what so ever. I have only ever seenhim create 1 background, and in that same video he has this.
From my galleryIt even says ''minecraft_blocks_by_exunary''And several pictures he has downloaded from my gallery and renamed.

He also seems to trace the avatars as well
Do not support this person
He has stolen and sold and given artwork
that is not his. 90% are from my gallery, in which you can
look at yourself and his portfolio and compare.
I know even by the first comparison picture everyone has recognized
that my artwork is clearly copy pasted and altered.
I have explained this in as much detail and evidence as possible,
simply because he shouldn't be able to deny this.
I've used everything he has said himself, against him with evidence.
Please do not support him.
I don't have the energy or time to write another DMCA notice to have everything taken down. The last time I didI was so emotionally exhausted and I can't be that waynow that I go to school. I have a test this week and I'veworked hard for several months to get good grades, and I am
I hope people understand my anxiety and how muchthese things trouble me.Working 6-13 hours on a drawing, only to see someoneleech off of my work to get profit is mindnumbingly terrifying.
If you want to order commissions from mefor MUCH cheaper prices than his bull- then I will open commissionsduring break.
This has really ticked me off and I apologize for such a scrambled journal postPlease do not do these things, you are actually harming people.
Update: He has admitted stealing my artwork and claims
he will not continue doing so.

Email: Exunary@gmail.com Website: Exunary.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/Exunary Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/exunarys/ Youtube: Exunary I ONLY respond on Email, Tumblr and Twitter. For future posts I will use Tumblr and Twitter. _____________________________________________________ General INFO 2021-06-03 I've just graduated High School and applied for University! The results come in July and I will know if I've been accepted or not. So far the chances of me getting into my first option in UNI is very promising! I applied to become a high school teacher in Biology. It's a 5 year long program and Biology is one of my favorite subjects! :) While I am an artist and I could probably never stop drawing I will still prioritize university and my education above all else. But I intend to make a promise to myself, and that is to spend time working on my real art goal anytime I can. In 2023 my Minecraft OC's turn 10 years old, and
Hello! I need your opinion :)
It's been over a year since I wrote something! I also haven't been drawing much either. I've learnt a lot about myself and how the absence of art in my life has affected me. On one hand it improved my ability to handle school, but on the other, art apparently gave me purpose :- ) I have no idea how many people are active on DeviantArt anymore, but I'm here to ask for some opinions : ) Firstly, I will very rarely interract on DeviantArt. I prefer Tumblr in case I will ever submit art. I find Tumblr very calm and pleasant. I don't seek platforms that will give me the most followers, or where I feel obligated to constantly advertise myself to grow my platform. I never want art to be my livelihood. Also my parents would disown me if I picked art as my caréer 8) I will soon graduate from highschool! I've applied to university and my dream is to become a teacher! I've also received therapy for over a year now which has substantially improved my mental state uwu For over 8 years I've
Leaving
For those who first see my DeviantArt Page
My entire gallery is ''stored'' and can be put back anytime.
Just because my DeviantArt is no longer being used, does not that my art is free to use or repost (it is NOT) I will report it.
I initially said I'd like to deactivate my DeviantArt, something I've wanted for many years.
But just as I've also mentioned, this DeviantArt is a huge burden for me. Im not happy here, I don't get credited to here, and I recently realized that if I remove my DeviantArt, the social-media site people know me best by, might come here and not know my other ways of contact.
Since people have impersonated me before b
About my watermarks
TL;DR
Why my watermarks look the way they do:
Brief explanation of what a watermark in art is: It's something you apply to your own work for it to identifiable as yours.
Whilst also to apply copyright protection. So essentially, if you've made something you have a right to put your name on it, obviously.
So I watermark my art because;
1. It's mine
2. To have it identified as mine.
3. To prevent theft.
Seems pretty straight forward! Now I could do a simple watermark, but that would only help point 1 and 2,
and not point 3, which is to prevent theft. So I made my watermark as visible and hard to edit out as I could,
because point
